The Shepherd's Inkhorn

Of Feasts & Famines // Well-Worn Souls in Poetry & Letters

Evensong


When my heart is heavy,
I shall go unto the sea
to cast my prayers upon the waves
as bread upon the waters—
for they shall soon return, 
once again to me.

& on these sea urchin purples
of the dawning dews of the sea,
I shall cast my prayers upon the waves
& gather of the breads of angels–
for they shall soon recede,
once again from me.
